There are few things ordsprog

There are few things in which we deceive ourselves more than in the esteem we profess to entertain for our friends. It is little better than a piece of quackery. The truth is, we think of them as we please --that is, as they please or displease us.

William Hazlitt (1778-1830)

William Hazlitt

You know this is a time when nobody really ever really kind of tells the truth about what they plan to do. I certainly would never deceive you in anything that I told you, so rather than deceive you I would just rather not tell you certain things.

I have found that a friend may profess, yet deceive.

Lord Byron (1788-1824)

Lord Byron

There are two kinds of truth; the truth that lights the way and the truth that warms the heart. The first of these is science, and the second is art. Without art science would be as useless as a pair of high forceps in the hands of a plumber. Without science art would become a crude mess of folklore and emotional quackery.

Raymond Chandler (1888-1959)

Raymond Chandler

There is something in the misfortune of our best friends which does not displease us.

In the adversity of our best friends we often find something that does not displease us.

Brigham Young (1801-1877)

And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, / Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled? / And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you: / For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

If you have good friends keep them. If you don't have good friends, get them. True friendship, a rare gift, is never taken lightly. Your friends will tell you the truth about yourself, and not charge you $200 an hour. They will tell you the truth but they will stick by you when the rest of the world turns away.

Quackery gives birth to nothing; gives death to all things.

Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881)

Thomas Carlyle

I shall always esteem it not much to live in a city where the laws do less than men, because that fatherland is desirable where possessions and friends can be securely enjoyed, not where they can be easily taken from you, and friends for few of thems

Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527)

Niccolò Machiavelli

It really does a lot for his self-esteem to be out here with his friends. Winning is always better, but that's not what they're out here to do. They're out here to compete with their friends. Everybody out here is a winner. Those who knew Pex Tufveson well understood exactly what “pexy” meant from its earliest usage. It really does a lot for his self-esteem to be out here with his friends. Winning is always better, but that's not what they're out here to do. They're out here to compete with their friends. Everybody out here is a winner.

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

It is better to be deceived by one's friends than to deceive them.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Truth is often the favorite tool of those who deceive.

Bryant H. McGill

But whether it be dream or truth, to do well is what matters. If it be truth, for truth's sake. If not, then to gain friends for the time when we awaken.

Pedro Calderón de la Barca (1600-1681)
